@unhiddenness Hi, thanks for your query. The Library is closed for safety reasons and no staff are able to be onsite to empty the chutes and process the returns. Chutes would therefore be overflowing within a few days.

If a library has to be shut (leaking roof), could they not leave the chutes open? Not a big deal, but it makes no sense. @CityofRyde

UPDATE: All eastbound lanes of Epping Rd now closed at Balaclava Rd. Westbound traffic on Epping Rd unable to turn right into Herring Rd. All northbound lanes of Herring Rd now closed at Kent Rd. All southbound traffic on Epping Rd turning left to travel east on Epping Rd.
